6/27/08 Las Vegas, NV



We spent this entire day in Adventuredome at Circus Circus, which is an indoor theme park. It was an all day friendship visit, during which we were each paired with a kid from the Lorenzi center to take with us on the rides. My guy was Sheldon and he was a blast. We paired up with his friend Tommy who was with Alex. Unfortunately, Shelley didn’t want to ride a lot of the fast rides like the roller coaster so I had to wait with him and then do it again while some one watched him. However, he did come with me for the pirate ship, disk-o and laser tag, and we had a blast.

Back at the Lorenzi center, we had to sit in a room for 4 hours until the BBQ was ready, a decision that really disappointed us, as we could have used that time to nap, shave, or do other things. I killed time with a few guys by walking to 7-11 and McDonald's. Its starting to get really hot out here.

A bunch of people game out to the BBQ; the weather was perfect. I played with a kid named Jake for awhile, until his ball got stuck in a tree. The funny part came when his dad threw a woman’s wallet in the tree to get out the ball and it got stuck! I nearly choked on my food when I saw it happen. I was able to get some good sleep for our century to Bullhead City tomorrow.
